Cant be of much help -I only have gone to one MA meeting I was the
speaker - The meeting started 5 minutes late and we all sat on comfy
couches. I stopped drinking in 1984 but then substituted with ganja
"one day at time" until June 1 1987 - Alcohol kicked my butt
physically but weed was so much harder to surrender psychologically. -
I could not listen to the Grateful Dead for six months and the
craving to smoke was with me for a long time, but it was removed -I
took 4 year cake at the Colliseum in Los Angeles The Dead and Savuka
( South African Band -thats where I was born -so that was extra
special - Cheese shows and fellowship with Jellies has been awesome
Lisa thanks for you post
One day at a time

Anonymous contacts? Hi Folks,A family member has "come out" to me
that she has a pot addiction and has been attending MA meetings
online for a few months. There is no MA in her area and she hasn't
had much luck with the local NA. She's looking for a female sponsor,
or at a minimum, a woman with solid MA sobriety that she can talk to.
Are any of you regulars at MA in your area and if so, do you have
some female contacts (numbers/email) you could pass along for her?
She's looking for someone with a solid program that can help her work
the steps.Thanks,Mama P
